A UN conference dedicated to establishing a global ban on autonomous weapons equipped with artificial intelligence opens in Geneva on 16 November. The main objective of the meeting is to discuss the possibility of fully banning or restricting the operation of systems capable of independently selecting and attacking targets without direct human intervention. The media often refer to such technologies as "killer robots".
Experts emphasise that the pace of development of AI-based military technologies significantly outstrips the formation of international norms governing their use. Current developments already allow unmanned vehicles to independently analyse the situation on the ground and select targets that were not previously designated by an operator.
Autonomous weapons have not yet become widespread, but there are confirmed facts of their use. Specifically, Russia employed such systems during its war against Ukraine, while the United States used them during strikes on Iran.
At present, countries around the world have not reached a consensus on regulating these technologies. The US insists on maintaining an adequate level of human control over processes, whereas France advocates for a complete ban on fully autonomous lethal systems, allowing only partial autonomy.
UN Secretary-General Antonio Guterres and President of the International Committee of the Red Cross Mirjana Spoljaric previously warned that the world has come dangerously close to a threshold beyond which machines will be able to independently make decisions to take human lives.
Experts predict that autonomous weapons may become a standard element of combat operations in the coming years. One of the most promising areas of development is considered to be drone swarms, which are capable of simultaneously attacking an enemy with a large number of vehicles.
